João Rodrigues Serrão, also known as Juan Serrano in the Spanish version, (Kingdom of Portugal - Cebu, 1521) was a 16th-century Portuguese navigator who sailed with Ferdinand Magellan during the first circumnavigation of the world (1519-1521). Serrão was brother or cousin to Francisco Serrão, who was residing in the Spice Islands when the voyage began and whom Magellan hoped to meet (both died before this occurred). He accompanied Ferdinand Magellan and his brother (or cousin) Francisco in the 7th Portuguese India Armada of 1505, led by Francisco de Almeida, commanding the round caravel ''Botafogo'', and later in the capture of Malacca and other actions in the East. Captain of the ship ''Santiago'' across the Atlantic and of the ''Concecion'' across the Pacific, Serrão was involved in the events that led to a massacre on Cebu allegedly instigated by Enrique of Malacca, but we cannot ascertained this by Antonio Pigafetta's accounts alone. ==Sources== *Samuel Eliot Morison, ''The European Discovery of America: The Southern Voyages 1492-1616'' (New York: Oxford University Press, 1974). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「João Serrão」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
